Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017137515A1] The invention relates to a self-contained system for welding two chamfered panels (191, 192), in particular along a plating seam, according to a welding sequence including a plurality of passes and comprising: a. a carriage (100) including motor-driven means for moving along a welded seam (190); b. a platform (120) supported by the carriage and including actuators and guide means, referred to as movement axes, for moving an effector relative to the carriage (100) according to a movement including two axes (y, z) perpendicular to the direction (x) in which the carriage (100) advances along the welded seam (190); c. a welding torch held by said platform (120); d. a profilometer (131) supported by the carriage and capable of acquiring a signal on the basis of the profile of the welded seam (190) in front of the welding torch in the direction (101) in which the carriage (100) advances along said welded seam; and e. a control computer (160, 161) capable of: ei. acquiring the signal from the profilometer (131); eii. carrying out calculations of the profile of the welded seam; and eiii. controlling the movement axes of the platform and the motor-driven means of the carriage on the basis of the calculation carried out in eii).
